MLB playoff TV schedule, where to watch, updated postseason bracket

Weather has wreaked havoc on the Tampa Bay Rays and Cleveland Guardians American League Championship Series schedule all week.

After having the start time for Game 3 moved up to avoid inclement weather and then Game 4 postponed last night, the two teams will finally get back on the diamond in Cleveland on Saturday, Oct. 17.

What was originally supposed to be Game 5 will now be Game 4 with first pitch set for 7 p.m. It could be the first of four straight days of playing without the luxury of a day off if the series goes back to Tampa and the distance.

No rain is in the forecast for Saturday night's Game 4 at Progressive Field. It will just be cold with temperatures in the 40s.

The Guardians lead the series, 2-1, after winning Game 3 over 48 hours ago.

There are no changes to the Game 4 pitchers despite the schedule change. Tampa Bay will continue to go with 15-game winner Nick Martinez, while the Guardians are having a bullpen game with Shawn Armstrong taking the mound first.

Here's what to know about the MLB playoff schedule, including start time, where to watch, an updated bracket and more:
